Giant eagles are birds of an impressive size, a majestic appearance and the ability to fly great distances. They well in mountainous or hilly regions, making their nests upon high cliffs or rocky ledges. Their homes are usually difficult to access for most creatures, affording them protection from ground-based predators
In Alexis' game world, these creatures don't have the high intelligence nor the ability to communicate that's associated with R.R. Tolkein's stories. They're not considered "beasts," but rather as birds with a natural biology within the game world.
